Glad they sent it...

A couple of months ago, Verizon sent us a replacement power cable for the router we use for the FiOS hook-up, since some people were reporting they were having troubles with the power cords going bad. I didn't replace the cord, since the one we had worked just fine.

I'm glad they sent it, since I'd gone out for a walk earlier and came home to find the Internet had gone down and the activity lights on the router were all blinking red. So I quickly swapped out the power cables and now it's back to normal.

Just a quiet day otherwise: I'm pecking away at typing up a chapter in my current magnum opus, which I hope to have posted shortly.
